Check out the stomachs of your triggers

[shiraz]

haha anyway, must be somewhere in the rockwork... at some dead spot where there is 0 current..

[Marino]

Sometime the dead fish might got buried in the sand so that's why the carcass can't be located.

[Golden Tooth]

Mostly in ur rockscape liao lah.

Did you search outside the tank?

[Tanzy]

Do not underestimate the efficiency of the detritivores in the tank.

[mUAr_cHEe]

Did you search outside the tank?

searched.... dun have.....

[oshkosh]

I lost a damsel once, in a 1ft cube tank.

Searched everywhere, including outside the tank. Totally no trace. Wierd huh!

Understand your feeling. Sometimes, its like the twilight zone.

Happy hunting.

[flubberina13]

Indeed...indeed...I have ever lost fish through this 'twilight zone' which I subsequently realised that there's no mystical aspect and finally attributed the 'phenomenon' to the industrious detrivores.

[Golden Tooth]

If really want to find it, remove all ur LR lor...

[shiraz]

very scientific!

[FuEl]

Ever heard of the 3rd dimension? It might have found the blackhole in your tank.

[Trigger Queen]

i also searched the whole room and found nothing... dun blame my trigger la...

this damsel was living with my pink tail trigger and juv blue-face in another tank and my pink-tail is friendly esp towards damsel... but dare not vouch for the gangster angel...

mmmmm... its just that, its not really a small fish and i found it MIA the evening i came home (morning was still there)

detritivores so efficient????

[SharkBait]

hehe,say sorry for me to ya triggers.You gotta believe it, i lost a dying clown to them in just half a day.

[dradttg]

I once had some Africa Clown. When one of them dies, I saw my blue tang carried it to a rock behind my tank.

I once had a Bicolor benny too. I saw it alive and well but after one hour I found its bone.

So I wont be surprise if the body of the fish disappear completely. Especially if you have some hidden crab in your LR.

[stinger]

Mine is total opposite. My cleaner shrimp went missing! No carcass too but I think I saw one of the antennaes...

[Achilles Tang]

You ask Chris... he has stated such a 'dimension' to his reef tank... if I am not wrong it is 5 x 2 x 2 x 2.
